In Training

Dear Elijah,

Here is a picture your Mommy took of you cleaning the bathroom.   She is teaching you all kinds of things because you are becoming such a big boy.   You actually like helping her too.   You are such a big boy....

Preschool Deposit

Dear Elijah, 

It's official!   Mommy and Nonna put down a deposit @ your preschool so you can start in January.  You are going to have so much fun playing with the other kids.  

The names Mommy

Dear Elijah,

Nonna has been trying to teach you your Mommy's name for a little while now.   It's important if you are ever lost to know your Moms name so they can page her or contact her if you ever get lost.    You can now officially say "Courtney".... and of course you know your own last name.

I am so proud of you and I hope as a little guy you never have to say her "real" name.

Family Time

Dear Elijah,

Tonight you, Mommy, and I sat in my bed and watched the TV show Glee.    You love hanging out in Nonna's bed and watching TV...

Seating

Dear Elijah,

Here is the seat you chose tonight while you watched the movie Nonna rented for you called    " How to train your dragon"....

Reading & Writing

Dear Elijah,

Your Mommy has been busy working with you on learning your letters and writing.  I know she is hoping to get lots of letters from you while she is away in Boot Camp and Navy A School.

Here are a few pictures Mommy took of you today:

Lightning McQueen Pit Crew

Dear Elijah,

This year for Halloween you went out in a "Lightning McQueen Pit Crew"costume.   You loved the fact that it was related to cars.
